The comfort of friends

I’m feeling anxious. We’re getting ready to move everything out of our house—including the two of us and our dog Jack. Yikes!

It’s necessary because our house needs extensive foundation repairs—and we’ve decided to go ahead and do major remodeling, too. The project will take six or seven months.

Because of my anxiety, my counselor suggests that a good antidote is to imagine a circle of good friends surrounding me. That helps!

As Winnie-the-Pooh once said, “Friendship is a comforting thing to have.”
